Re: What are you smoking? May 2024

Black Ambrosia in my Darnley Pot that I restored last year due to the inspiration from Fr_Tom For some reason I never considered the Pot shape before seeing all of his Pots. They could possibly take the "my favorite shape" away from the Billiard. I have a BUNCH of old dirty Pots in my old ...

Re: Deer Jerky in the dehydrator!

All Deer Jerky I have tried has been so damn Tough. I am not sure if that is not normal or that is the way it is because there is not much fat. This is as soft as any beef jerky. The key is to cut the meat against the grain, marinate the meat overnight, then when its CLOSE to done in the dehydrator...

Re: What are you smoking? April 2024

I found a couple jars of C&D Va Flake that I didn't remember even buying. The jar is from 2018 and there are only two 4 ounce jars left. I usually buy bulk in one pound, but sometimes eight ounces. Sinse I do not remember buying this, it must have been eight ounces. :) Anyways, it is very, very ...
